DEMOCRATIC sENATORIALCAUCUs
Plan of Action Regarding the Admis-
sion OF New SenatOrs.
by telegraph 10 the Dispatch

by telegraph TO the DispatchJ
WASHINGTON, ID. c., December "a
fully-attended caucus of the Democratic
senators convened at Il o'clock to- day to
hear the final report of its committee APP
pointed to outline a policy and plan of
action with regard to the admission of
the new Democratic senators against
whose title some question has been raised.
A committee consisting of Senators
Pugh. Blackburn, Harris, and Vest re-
ported that it had carefully considered
all the facts in the cases of Senators
Turpie Of Indiana aud Faulkner of
West Virginia, and all other new Demo
cratic senator's, and had reached the
conclusion that all were fully entitled to
their seats. The merits of each case
having been discussed by the caucus, it
was unanimously resolved that the entire
list of new Democratic senators were
entitled to their seats, and that so far as
the Democrats could influence the mat
ter they should be sworn in on Monday
when the other new senators are called
to take their oaths. Nothing beyond
this was determined upon i'll connection
with the matter, it being the unanimous
opinion of the caucus that no departure
from precedent should be made, and
that no obstacle to the admission of all
the senators-elect should be anticipated.
The committee also reported that it has
examined all the credentials of the Re-
publican senators-elect and found seve-
raj upon which objections could legiti-
mately be based Facts were laid before
the caucus and discussed !; but, as the
defects are merely technical, it was de-
termined to make no objection unless
objections were made by the Re-
publicans to the admission Of the
Democrats. An understanding was
reached, however, that should the
admission OF any Democrat be objected
to the party would act as a unit accord
ing as circumstances seem to require
The tone of the speakers in the caucus
was firm without being belligerent. TWAS
made known that the Democrats held
the advantage-in fact, that Senator
Jones, of Nevada, is absent and is paired
with Senator Hearst, who begins new
term, and is therefore not yet a senator.
Upon the request of the Republicans
the caucus at once assented as proposed
by Senator Kenna, who has charge of
the Democratic pairs, to the pair
ing of Senator Jones with some
Democrat already sworn in. This
reduces the voting strength of each
party TO twenty-four. Senators Beck
aud Kenna were elected respectively
chairman and secretary of the Demo
cratic caucus to serve during the coming
session.
A rumor is current that the Republi.
cans have decided to object to the seat
ing of Senators Turpie, Faulkner. Hearst,
and Blodget, but it is probably with
out foundation-at least so far as Hearst
and Blodget are concerned. The Re-
publicans have had no caucus, and seve-
raj leading Republicans say they haveno
knowledge of any such purpose. The
roll-call has been printed for use on Mon
day, containing only the names of those
senators who have already been sworn
in--fifty in number.

The Negro Vote.

The Hartford Co,woat. in commenting
onthe negro vote at the South, says eve
might inquire what is the reason that
those who once took so much interest in
general politics no longer care to vote. "
To this the Boston Herald replies:
at was because, instead Of being
educated TO be interested in the suffrage
by making an intelligent use of il, they
we're made tho tools of corrupt men.
The negro ought not, for his own credit,
to take an interest in the suffrage under
the conditions in which he formerly ex-
erciscd it 10 q great degree in the South,
and il is point in his favor that he has
not desired TO renew them. Better not
vote at all than vote TO create anarchy
and corruption in society"
And we would remind tho CourGnt
that JOHN SHERMAN and other Republi-
can leaders think that the enfranchise-
ment Of the negro was mistake, be-
cause their party can no donger control
his vote in bulk TO create anarchy and
corruption in society. The Hcralds
comment shows that the intelligent
northern mind is unquestionably awaken
ing to the beauties of reconstruction and
Republican rule in the South.

Mr.. Nathaniel Clapp, the inventor of
absorbent cotton, is now eighty-fye
years old. He devotes his hale old age
to the care of an extensive garden and

Lady Plunkett, wife of Sir Francis r.
Plunkett, the new British Minister to
Brussels, was a Miss Morgan, of Phila-
delphia, and clever and accomplished
woman.
Representative Whitthorne, OF Ten

established post-roads.
Roscoe Conkling anticipated the re-
cent cold wave by buying a new ulster
that touches his heels. It's what the
dudes would call dandy and cost

Mrs. Kellogg, mother of Clara Louise
Kellogg-Strakosch, was at one time a

Prince Ferdinand, of Bulgaria, owes
the Car such a grudge for his continued
antagonism that he is stated TO have
cleared out Of the palace at Sofia every
single portrait of Alexander [. and II.

The Duke of Sutherland laments that
he has never been able TO discover what
it is best 10 do in life. Tie has by turns
tried his hand at the improvement on a
grand scale of his vast estate, at the i'm
proyement of Egypt, at denunciation Of
Mr.. Gladstone, at being fireman, at
yachting, and even at the wild dissina-
ton of an American tour, without the
Duchess, but has to own that life through
ont to him is ga bore"
According to NJ. Paschal Grousset,
who writes for the London Times and
publishes bright books about bis adopted
country under the name of Philippe
Daryl, our late Minister at the Court
OF st. James does not think well Of
the recent art of England. Eng
lish art is dying" he is reported
as saying; sit is without vitality. with
out aim, and without imagination ; the
English school OF to-day produces only
dull and valueless works the future IS
with the young American, daughter OF
the French school" Ii Mr. Lowell
really said all this he must have gwen
the Frenchman happy half hour. But
the great art world of London will not
soon forgive him for such sweeping crit
cism.

The Drummers' Case.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
BY reference to the decision Of the
United States Supreme Court in Robins
rs. Shelby County you will see that
Judge Bond followed the law as enunci-
ated by that court in his recent decision
in the North Carolina drummers' tax
case. 1t is only the law, not its merits,
to which your attention is called.
MAX.
We are obliged to MAX" who has
sent TO us a pamphlet copy of the opin-
ion of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the case he calls our attention
to. The opinion covers much ground
not to say all of it-and leaves nothing
to be hoped for by the States except an
act of Congress providing that a State
may levy the same tax on drummers
from other States that is levied on drum
mers within the State. The decision de
MES the power of the State Legis-
latures to do this without the consent Of
Congress.

passengers. The opinion is by Mr..
Morrison. commissioner, and tho
commission decides that IL will not
go into the question of money damages,
because il cannot give jury trial, which
the defendant is entitled 10 have under
the seventh amendment to the United
States Constitution, aud that it is not
authorized to award counsel and at
torneys fees, which court may do under
the eighth section OF the act to regulate

should have the security and convenience
of travel for which his money bad been

who buy frat-class tickets accommoda-
tions equally safe and comfortable with

The Wytheville Enterprise declares
in its latest issue that "against the pro-
position to reduce the duty on iron ores
and coal, or worse still. to put these
items on the free list, and retain the tax
on tobacco and fruit distillation, this,
the Ninth congressional district of Viz
ginia, would roll up a majority of ten
thousand.
Yes, and 10000 majority in the Ninth
district against the Democratic party
means the loss of Virginia. And yet, in
a telegram from Washington it is stated
that Mr.. Roger Q. Mills, the unbalanced
free trader and traducer OF our people,
has prepared revenue bill which, if
passed by Congress, would seriously i'm
pair, if it did not utterly destroy, the
great industrial enterprises of South
western Virginia. His bill is divided
into six schedules, and the tax on
tobacco is retained, while large
number OF articles upon the duty
list are added to the free list
Among other articles made free that
now pay duty are salt, copper in plates,
ipgots, sheets, pigs, and other forms
anthracite and bituminous coal, iron ore,
lead ore, hair OF alpaca goat, and other
animals; all kinds of wool, including
rags, shoddy waste, and flax; timber
hewn, sawed, squared, and sided, sawed
boards, planks, slaves, wood. pickets,
poles, laths, shingles. clapboards. and
other forms of unmanuiactured wood.
And the worst of it is some OF the Vir-
ginia newspapers actually concur in and
persistently advocate this disastrous poll

REPUBLICAN, CAUCUS.
Candidates for House officers Nomi-
mated-Other work Done.

[By telegraph to the Dispatch
WASHINGTON, December 3.-The Re
publican members Of the House of Re-
representatives. held their first caucus of
the session this afternoon. OF 153 Re-
publican representatives III members
were in attendance. None OF the four
Independent members-elect were pres
ent. j. c. Cannon, of Illinois, and Louis
MacComas, of Maryland, were respect
lively reelected to the positions which
they held during the last Congress
chairman and secretary of the caucus.
When these preliminaries had been
arranged Mr.. Mckinley, of Ohio, nomi-
mated Thomas b. Reed, of Maine, for
Speaker, and the nomination was con-
firmed by reclamation. Mr. Reed made
q brief speech, in which he counselled
party harmony and predicted q Republi-
can victory in the next presidential cleo
ton. Nominations for the remaining
officers of the next House were then
made, as follows: Edward Mcpherson,
of Pennsylvania, Clerk Daniel Shop
herd, OF Illinois, Sergeant-at-Arms /;
w. r. Fitch, of Ohio, Doorkeeper !;
Charles H. Grey, of Dakota, Postmas-
ter; Francis w. Thomas, of Indiana,
Chaplain. The nominations were agreed
to without debate, except III the case of
Mr.. Grey, over whose nomination some
little discussion arose as TO the propriety
of recognizing the Territories in the
distribution of the House Offices. Mr..
Thomas, who was nominated for Chap
lain, is a minister of the Society Of
Friends, and is we'll known in the West
as 1.-THE Quaker Preacher"
After long discussion as to the adj
visibility of such action the caucus
authorized the chairman to appoint Il
committee of eleven members to be
known as "Caucns Committee" and
to be charged with the duty of calling
the caucus together whenever it may be
necessary. Only an incidental mention
was made of the tariff during the session,
and no attempt was made to outline the
policy TO be followed by Republicans of
the House.

soldiers and Sailors Monument.

The movement b erect soldiers and

that commends itself not only to every
citizen of Richmond, but, every citizen
Of Virginia. There should be no diff
rulty in raising sufficient fund to make
the monument q credit TO Virginia and
worthy of those whose deeds it is intend
I'D 10 commemorate. Nor do we imagine
thsre viii be. The design of the associa-
t,on. as We understand it, is not to make
the monument mere local affair, but a
testimonial 10 the memoryof the soldiers
snd sailors that ali who revere the Lost
Cause will take pride in contribu-
ting 10. Those who have so far been
mentioned as prominently associated
with the matter are pushing, en-
ergetic men. The ntes OF the pro-
